Yes, it's a good learning experience but he has done a great job so far, if there is a way to show him support monetarily I would love to | ||

Although Blizzard started off w/ negative PR from this, I believe they have gained positive light in my eyes in the end. Again, thank you. And to Sonic. Godspeed Sonic, I can't wait for this historic finals to go down  On November 15 2012 12:22 ZodaSoda wrote: Straight from "Fuck Blizzard" to "Props to Mike Morhaime" Overreaction Level = to Starcraft 2 Dota 2 and LoL Drama wheeeeeeeeeeee These kinds of ppl will always make me laugh | ||

Blizzard does something to immediately rectify the situation. What's the response? That the community made it happen and that Blizzard is just doing damage control. Hate to say "I told ya so", but it goes without saying. This is why you don't jump to conclusions in the first place. I'm very happy that the right thing has been done! Sonic is working really hard on this, the community is enjoying it and it would have been a terrible thing for the tournament to not finish. Just please give credit to Blizzard and Mike Morhaime for making the right decision, instead of patting yourself on the back for being a keyboard warrior. | ||

They corrected an error that was their fault to begin with. They don't deserve mounds of credit for returning back to the status quo. Your logic: "So that dude did kidnap a girl, but he let her go 3 days later. So really, we should all be patting that guy on the back because he helped resolve a kidnapping case. What an upstanding citizen." | ||

So for all of you people who try to judge the community for "overreacting" and "circle jerking" or whatever .. again I can't do it enough times but to requote Falling: On November 14 2012 18:37 Falling wrote: What is the mature and reasonable reaction you are expecting? If after 12 years, all the SC2 tourneys got shut down or tranitioned into MOBA games. All the pros and casters retire or switch to MOBA games. And then one guy started up a SC2 tourney because he's passionate about it. And then a bunch of the old SC2 pro's started showing up. And then Tastosis said they'd like to cast the finals. So you're super psyched. And then Blizzard drops a cease and desist two days before the tourney? What other reaction is there? Think before you post and judge. If you were as invested in this as the rest of us, would you be saying the same things? Anyways, thank you Mike Morhaime, and to Sonic. I'm truly excited for the Grand Finals | ||

Blizzard (the higher ups) wouldn't have KNOWN about it if we hadn't bitched about it. After it became known, and they made it clear that they were rectifying the situation, the bitching should have stopped. But no, people bitched for another 20 pages. | ||

Nothing would have been fixed if we didn't bitch that much. And we we're right to be outraged, because Morhaime himself sounded surprised by the shit Blizzard Korea (is it Blizzard Korea?) was trying to pull. Thanks M. Morhaime for intervening in favor of Sonic, and thanks Snorlax for letting him know about the issue. I myself posted it on Blizzard's Facebook page. Maybe it's time to for me to create an account on Twitter haha. | ||

And the bitching only went on for about 5 pages after the tweet. Once it was resolved, the bitching stopped. Please stop misconstruing the situation. | ||

I think it depends on how quickly sonic can reobtain the venue and ask all the ppl he canceled to appear at the finals to come back D: i hope it can continue as smoothly as possible | ||
